Talking New Wheels New Rubber!

I finally got around to put my rims on after picking up the last 2 tires yesterday from Hiwords and I will be going lower soon just money is a big factor in keeping wheel gap where it is now. They are Flik Wasp 18x8 with 225/40/18 tires on. Tell me what you think...she is filthy i know she needs a bath and a nice wax job but i have no money to do that.

thanks guys and B5 Audi i think those are going to be one of my next purchases and probably before i get lower.

Jermey. now you can change your sig well since your rims are on now and mine are on.

What should i go with to go low for a lower budget guy since im 17 almost 18 and have a min wage job working maybe 30 every pay check?

A set of OEM sport springs will give you a noticeable drop and can be used on the struts you have now. They should be very inexpensive as they're factory used parts. Get a set and bring them down - Gerry has pneumatic spring compressors at his house that will make the install a breeze. I think the ride about 3/4"-1" lower than non sport springs so you won't be slammed but you'll definitely see the difference.

Race springs FTW - Yu has them and his stance is perfect.
